Museums, Arts and Crafts

The French Jura has several museums and local skills/Arts and crafts workshops to help you to understand the local industrial skills, culture, and history: archaeological museum, wood-turning workshops, leatherwear, hand-crafted wooden models museum, toy museum, fruitière 1900 traditional cheese manufacturer, regional workshop offering courses in many different skills. Something for everybody’s taste.

Welcome to the 'Lacs et Petite Montagne' Region in the French Jura, our 'Lakes and Low Mountains' region, which offers an array of outdoor activities throughout the year. The Summer season is the perfect playground for rambling, hill-walking, trekking, cycling, mountain-biking, equestrian sports, canoeing, sailing, all physical sports for the fittest, but there is also the other more laid-back approach: plenty of lakeside beaches, outstanding natural sites such as waterfalls, gorges, high-point belvederes (viewpoints), and a large selection of indoor activities.
